infected piercings are common, removing jewelry may cause ABSCESS FORMATION.. Clean the area gently with SALINE WATER and apply an antibiotic cream.. Keep it dry and avoid touching it with dirty hands.. Do not reinsert the jewelry until COMPLETELY HEALED.. Seek medical help if symptoms worsen..

Male | 52
You have had itchy rashes for at least 2 years already, despite using many medications. But it is necessary to find out what is causing it. The typical causes of long-lasting skin rashes and itching are allergies, eczema, or dermatitis. Get an appointment with a dermatologist to have a thorough evaluation and to receive a customized treatment plan that fits your particular condition.

"Hey, I just noticed that today my blood vessels are a purple color, and when I try to touch them, it doesn't cause any pain only a little bit of sore otherwise im fine. It started today, and I don't feel any symptoms at all. im not on any medication.
Male | 20
Purple blood vessels on the skin can look unusual, but they're usually not a big deal. Increased pressure might make them more noticeable. If there's no pain or other symptoms, it's probably nothing to worry about. Try elevating your legs and avoiding standing for too long. However, if you're concerned, see a dermatologist for treatment.

The body can be affected by stretch marks during its rapid growth or weight gain, and this is common during teenage. It may occur as a consequence of hormonal shifts too.

I am 28 years old men having anal infection since last month can u plz help me with the correct ointment
Male | 28
An anal yeast infection might cause those symptoms you described. The area around your anus probably feels itchy and looks red. That's common when there's too much moisture or if you don't clean thoroughly. Try an antifungal cream with clotrimazole. Avoid wearing tight underwear or pants. And wash your underwear really well after wearing it. If the problem doesn't go away after trying that, you'll want to see a dermatologist.

I recently had a syphilis infection. My RPR titer went down from 64 to 8. Will it get to non - reactive
Male | 29
Syphilis, a treatable infection, responds to antibiotic treatment. Your declining RPR titer indicates progress. A titer of 8 signifies improvement, though complete clearance may take time. Persevere with prescribed treatment. Consult your dermatologist regularly for monitoring and guidance. Syphilis symptoms include sores, rashes, fever, and fatigue. Completing treatment prevents complications and stops the infection's spread.

I have skin ache for almost a week and it mostly start at night. When ever I scratch it the place will swollen a little and some turn to wound. I have applied different oilment but it only reliefs and continue the next day. Kindly advise
Male | 37
You might be having eczema, a skin condition. Eczema can lead your skin to get itchy, swell up, and be susceptible to wounds when scratched. This condition can aggravate at night due to the temperature and humidity changes. The ointments can give a momentary comfort, but it is crucial to recognize the triggers like some soaps or foods. Use a mild, unscented moisturizer and scratch less to avoid further irritation. If the symptoms do not go away, then it is better to see a dermatologist who can assess and manage the problem properly.

I have rigid black heads and white heads and open pores which kind of clean up I should go for. Nowadays my skin texture which was normal is turning dry.
Female | 25
According to me, you can go for a gentle, non-abrasive deep cleansing. Products that contain natural ingredients like tea tree oil, etc. can help with open pores and do not even have side-effects. For preventing dry skin, you can use natural ingredients like aloe vera etc., which can help keep your skin moist.

Can I use bleach on face if I am under treatment for verrucca plana?
Female | 21
Don't put bleach on your face if you have verruca plana. That skin issue happens when a virus infects your cells. It creates odd growths. Harsh bleach irritates skin more, making problems severe. Follow your doctor's advice precisely. Treat your skin gently and patiently.

Tiny spots around bum and red nappy rash like when I touch it screams
Male | 13 months
It seems like your baby has some small spots around their bottom area along with a red diaper rash. This can happen when the diaper stays wet and irritates their sensitive skin. Change diapers often to keep them dry. Use soft wipes and let the area air out before putting on a fresh diaper. Also, try a mild diaper rash cream to soothe the irritation.

Acne is common, causing pimples and oily skin. Hair follicles get blocked with oil and dead skin cells. You can try soap with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. These ingredients unplug pores and reduce acne. Gently wash your face, avoid harsh scrubbing.

I have iching in scrotal sac. From last 5 days
Male | 17
You may have a condition called jock itch. Symptoms consist of itching in the scrotal area, redness, and sometimes a rash. The jock itch is caused by a fungus, which is more common in hot and damp environments. Moments when the itch first strikes, always maintain the area clean and dry, wear loose-fitting clothes, and use antifungal creams to treat it. If the condition doesn't improve, visit a dermatologist.

A keloid is when the skin grows too much after an injury has healed. They may feel itchy or painful. You could use silicone sheets or gel over the wound to stop it from growing back. Additionally, ask your physician about corticosteroid injections which can help flatten the keloid.

How to reduce burn red smoothness swelling
Female | 18
For effective burn treatment, it is highly advised to immerse the injured part in cold water immediately to reduce redness, smoothness, and swelling. Then, you can finish it up by patting the skin dry and applying aloe vera gel or a cold compress. They are managed over the counter to help. If you suffer from a major burn, or if it is spread over a large area, make sure to visit a dermatologist or a burn specialist.
